Existing construct is: 5XGAL4-Spacer-HsvTK-Kozak-AMCyan-AmCyan-NLS-Stop in V0200 mammalian vector
Amplification of CMV and HPK from KAH187 and KAH184 respectively.
The backbone vector has BSMBI cut site within the hygromycine resistance gene. I was removed though Site Directed Mutagenesis

Dilute the purified PCR product to 20 fmol/μL
Measure ng/μL of the purified sample.
The volume of purified DNA (x) you will need to dilute in a final volume of 20 μL = length in bp ÷ measured ng/μL * 20 fmols/μL * 650 fg/fmol ÷ 1,000,000 fg/ng * 20 μL final volume
Formula: x = length in bp ÷ measured ng/μL * 0.013 * 20
